In our digital societies made of big data, hidden algorithms and fake news, raising educators’ awareness regarding the complexity of using digital technologies and social media for learning is a key issue. Developing critical digital competences is in fact key to everyone, but even more to educators, so that they can empower students to engage not only effectively but also ethically with the current socio-technical ecosystem.  

For this shift to become mainstream, however, education systems need to be invested in approaching digital competences from a critical perspective, starting from the training of teachers themselves, and with the frameworks regulating both pedagogies and curricula. This involves reconceptualising the notion of digital literacies in order to look beyond functional digital skills and encompass instead a richer set of critical digital literacies, that are tailored specifically to educators’ personal and professional needs. 

This webinar will present examples of tools and approaches to develop an in-depth understanding of the dimensions of critical digital literacies within learning design and professional development. 

The webinar is organized by the ETF Community of Innovative Educators, and is mainly targeting trainers and teachers. The agenda and registration form are available here.

The meeting will be delivered in English, Russian and Arabic.
